kMS's best attempt at pink bean on video? - Cyanne - 2008-08-15

In my boredom, I scoured the far reaches of the internet and turned up with this video showing as far as I know the farthest kMSers have gotten through the pink bean fight.

http://www.mncast.com/player/index.asp?mnum=5493298

Watch to 1:10-ish. This is what happens:
 Spoiler

This video seems to be the end of an 8-part series; you can find the others under the second tab of the related videos window, similar to youtube. From the videos, the fight looks really glitchy. The first forms of both hawk statues seem to lack skills, and the far right scholar statue's eye-turning skull and dispel skills don't work. The second forms of the hawk statues, at least the middle right one, don't have skill animations, but the effects of their skills still take place.

Also, the video gives quite a lot of info about the bosses. The zombify skill does in fact cause heal to damage the zombified player, as seen when the shadower was killed instantly after being zombified. Also, ariel's zombify seems to affect the entire arena since the shadower was at the very bottom right. I don't think anyone could survive bishops' heal; this shadower had a bit over 9.2k hp, and with meso guard, that's over 18.5k heal damage. Pink bean also casts zombify, meaning bishops shouldn't heal at all past phase 4. Looks like this comboed with seduce will make for an interesting boss battle in phase 5. Seduce from the middle right hawk statue looks extremely lethal. It's different from horntail's seduce... instead of locking a character into only jumping or moving, it locks them into jumping while holding right, killing most people who bump into statues like that, which was what caused the rain of tombstones after the beginning of phase 5 of the battle. Another thing is that the one hour time limit seems to hold throughout the entire battle, at least through phase 5. After the lag after reaching 0:00, everyone got booted out of the map.

There are several differences between the statues here and the statues in the pink bean thread, so it looks like Fiel will have to extract normal kMS's latest patch data to clear this all up. The statues definitely look killable in their current state, especially since that far right statue doesn't dispel, meaning that ranged attackers can kill the seducing hawk statue out of the range of its seduce once the far right statue is dead and out of the way. The squad in the video got owned by the statues because they just didn't know what was coming =/

what's zombify?

Meh, Mn-Cast is pretty popular in Korea Tongue!
Far reaches you say?

Anyway, load time sucks for this one for anyone who asks, and I imagined this fight a little different, dunno why.

Zombify adds the Zombie status to your character, making you suffer damage from heal, just like other undead monsters in the game.

Interesting find. It looks too glitchy to attempt though.

so it makes you heal vulnerable and bishops can kill other characters? wierd. can they kill people in other parties?

Well, the only logical way I see to overcome this status is if you just bring your own pots like you should. Rolleyes
That way, there's NO chance you'll die from being zombified.

The other way is for the bishop to remove his/her weapon when healing, since heal doesn't damage monsters (zombified players in this case) if there's no weapon equipped.

Yeah, zombify looks like it gets you damaged from heal; watch how the recording shadower dies.

And the fight would be lots different if it wasn't so glitchy... it would take some strategy once the fight's fixed. As far as I can see, the best setup for phase 5 would be to have the warriors attacking ariel from her left and archmages and bishops on the bottom right attacking the middle left hawk statue from its left. Whenever ariel has weapon cancel or when the hawk statue has magic reflect, the respective groups would attack the left scholar statue while it wears off. Ranged attackers and possibly dark knights would be at the bottom right attacking the far right scholar statue from the right, depending on whether or not hb is needed. Once the far right statue is down, the middle right hawk statue is next for the ranged group. Once ariel's down, swap bishops out of the archmage parties into whatever parties have dark knights and after helping them get through the statue that seduces, have them help out on the middle right statue, making sure that their max hit doesn't hit more than their hp. The rest of the warriors could work on the far right. When both the far right and middle left statues go down, archers would be swapped into the archmage/bishop/dark knight parties to give them SE so that they could take down the middle left faster. The reason the middle left can only be safely attacked by archmages, bishops, and dark knights at the beginning is that it casts a buff that reflects damage back at you so that the damage you deal on the statue is also dealt to yourself. Another option is for the rest of the warriors to tone down their equipment so that they don't hit more than their hp.

But that's just from what we know currently, I'm not sure if the middle left hawk kept the damage reflect thing =/

hahaha i laughed so hard that bishop killed his teammate rofl

I like how there's a platform above everyone else where heal won't reach and DrKs can berserk. He can HB from up there too.


kMS's best attempt at pink bean on video? - Cyanne - 2008-08-15

Well, I found out that the far right statue still dispels... it dispels early on the video of part 6 =/

the dk was using beserk o.0. is in state of shock.

Not that hard to use berserk when you have lvl 30 berserk and max HP as I imagine he probably did. Even in berserk he would still have more HP than most of them.

Or at least more HP then any magic attack being dished out at him.
